Leather Handbag with Shipibo Embroidery | Artisan Made in Peru

Crafted in Peru and designed by Jason Bear of Casa de Oso in Pisac, these leather medicine bags bring together Sacred Valley leatherwork and traditional Shipibo textile art.

Each piece is handcrafted and finished with authentic Shipibo embroidery, then stamped with the Casa de Oso mark — a signature of the small-scale, intentional work created through Bear’s collaborations with local artisans.

Designed to carry meaningful objects close, these bags hold more than what is placed inside them. They carry story, pattern, craft, and intention.

The embroidered designs, known as Kené, form part of the traditional visual language of the Shipibo-Konibo people of the Peruvian Amazon. Their intricate geometric pathways are associated with harmony, healing, connection, and the relationship between the physical and spiritual worlds.
